Most of his biggist wins were over smaller men, natural welterweights. He started as a light heavyweight.
He was convicted for stealing old ladies' purses. That's low.
He's a poor sport, who couldn't be a man and acknowledge Calzaghe won their fight.
He even pretended he was hurt from a low blow - that's poor sportsmanship too.
And he's a racist who said he would never let a white boy beat him.

learn something. Hopkins career didn't start in 2007.
I see he was cheating then too. For example, look at the punch then push tactic, at 52 seconds. Same as he did to Calzaghe in round one of their fight.
I've seen some of his old fights, although I don't enjoy watching him, and he used the headbutts and hit & hold tactics back then too. But you can't see that, because you're too focused on hugging his nuts.

oh and Hopkins is a natural LHW? hahaha.
hopkins is a natural MW. trinidad is a natural LMW cuz he had trouble making the ww limit for years. theres about a 6pound difference in those 2 divisions. Trinidad even weighed in at 158.5 and Hopkins 157 for their fight. stop hating.

majority of his fights was at 147. he only had a few fights at 154.
tito is a natural 147 guy.
bernard is a big 160 guy.
